Have you found reliable online used vinyl vendors?
There are plenty of reliable sellers out there,you just have to take the time to buy and note what you get from who you got it from. Soundstage Direct sells sealed vinyl @ a discount if the record has a bent corner or a split seam. I bought a Fogh...

music matters blue notes 33 1/3
I not only would return them and I would ask to speak to someone in charge. Address the return to him and have him look at the product. Tell him if you receive another shipment of this quality you will return it on his dime for a full REFUND.

Love Tractor is good too,I was lucky to pick up a whole bunch of their recordings at a garage sale some time back. 
Rembering the 80s: College Rock
Wasn't this thread about college rock not rock of the 80's? Anyway one of my favorite bands of that genre was Guadalcanal Dairy. 
new kiko sound quality
I haven't played mine yet but on another audio website people are just over the moon on the sound quality. That is the reason I purchased mine not to mention it is one of Los Lobo's best offerings. 
Beck / Morning Phases
If you mean music wise no,it actually sounds lie Sea Change part ll. If your talking about subject matter yes,the songs are more introspective and not as depressing as Sea Change. 
Beck / Morning Phases
My apologies, The title is Morning Phase not Phases.

Suddenly, Porcupine Tree
I enjoy PT and some of Steve Wilson's solo stuff but to be honest on his solo work he borrows way to much from other prog classic bands.On his Grace for Drowning cd on the 2nd disc he rips off some of King Crimsons music from Lizard. It's bound to...

The MOFI Vinyl of Hotel California is in my top five MOFI recordings. 
Great Artists with one great record
Well since they only did one good album on Epic, a group called The Fabulous Poodles. Off of it were a few regional hits,Mirror Star and Roll Your Own. 
Grant Green suggestions
Another artist Grant recorded with alot was Don Wilkerson. I have at least 4 albums with him and Don. I picked up a Blue Note Cd the other day called Ballads / Grant Green in the bargin bin,it's worth a listen,it's culled from his Blue Note record...
